>Should I still eat it?
depends on what you're hoping to achieve

How does shit like this happen in a freezer? (Where you keep bacon)

Op check your freezer temp.

>>17714854
if it doesn't smell off and no mold, it's fine

>>17714854
If meat turned green you shouldn't eat it.

if it smells fine it's ok

>>17714866
Orgasm without the help of my niece.

If it is sticky it might be a little off.

Depends on which would you rather lose, $5 buying a new pound of bacon or a possible 5 hours spraying liquid from both ends.

Do what I do: if you want bacon, get it from the butcher shop. It's about the same price as yet better quality than the pre-packaged stuff, you can ask for specific thicknesses (including just having the butcher cut a chunk off with a knife rather than putting it through the slicer or even having him run it through the mincer for you) and you can freeze it in portion sizes so you lessen the risk of any of it going off.

Oxidation of meat and fat. Should be fine to eat, won't be as fresh, but no worries.

If you're worried about it deteriorating further, cook it all at once and chop it up, put it in a bag for use on salads, sammich, shit like that.

Oh, and the minced bacon? Do that with beef bacon for the best burgers. Buy a pound and a half of a lean cut of beef, such as top round, and a half pound of beef bacon and have the butcher run it through the mincer for you. You may have to mix it together better yourself, but the hardest part is done for you.
Anyway, form your burger patties from that mixture and you're golden. Perfect amount of fat, great smokey taste and no need to add salt.

It's probably Ukrainan.

Excellent tip, I already got redpilled on sausages and steaks from the butcher and I have been buying meat to make my own jerky from him too. But never thought of buying bacon there. I just threw this stuff out and will get more bacon from the butcher tomorrow.

Glad I could help.

just make sure its well cooked anon

>>17714854
its fine, either cook the brown out of it or just trim off the brown
>t. anon who eats rotten shit all the time as poorfag

>>17715296
cont.
if it smells like ass after trimming, maybe avoid.

>>17714854
it's fine
I've eaten bacon that's gone rancid, didn't even get the shits

>>17714854
i wouldn't touch that shit

bin it

>>17715344
Wasteful fuck. Children mmm.

>>17714854
I don't like it. Visually, it disgusts me, thus I can't enjoy it. Purely on aesthetic standards I vote to throw it out.

looks like it's just oxidizing a bit
if it actually smells fine and you're not just coping.. i'd eat it

>>17714943
where are you getting $5 lbs of bacon? even trash level oscar meyer injected with sugars trash ass bacon is $8/lb now days.. and i live in a place with insanely low costs

>>17715664
>oscar meyer
>trash
But I like Oscar Meyer.

>>17714854
I'm pretty sure that's just where the air has got at it. If it doesn't smell off, it's probably fine. If it was just me I'd cook it and try some, but if I were cooking for guests or something I probably wouldn't risk it.

>>17715676
i like some shitty foods as well but not sugar injected bacons of the lowest quality. how hard is to to buy thick cut bacon at your butcher?

anyways bacon hasn't been $5/lb in almost 2 years at this point..

>>17715519
what can i say, i'm rich enough to waste food

keep on eating my garbage

>>17715691
i don't know any actual rich people who would gloat about wasting money
this is more of a flex someone with a lot of debt would try

>>17714854
Looks fine to me

>>17714854
This looks awful.
If it smells fine, it’s usually okay to eat, our noses are pretty adapted to detecting bad food. However, I don’t know if I’d trust your nose. You seem like you might be retarded.

>>17715683
I checked the inner strips and they were all the same color. Based on that I decided to throw it away.

>>17715818
I think the issue is that it's so highly processed and has so many chemical flavoring additives that it drowned out the smell of rancidity. It just smelled like sugar, syrup, and smoke.

>>17714854
For me, expired food must pass the visual and smell test before I'll eat it. This bacon would be a soft no-eat

>>17714854
What do you think dude
